Thread: Cap dump and getting space for rental and sign Point next year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jshherman</b></div><div>Callahan is not waiving for that trade. I could see Arizona making the trade after the playoffs knowing he is going to retire and take the cap hit for some package. But that would only be if the Lightning win the cup. I don't think the Lightning need to / should make any large trades this year unless another team seriously loads up. But the Lightning need Sergachev's low cap hit next year and can find a way to get him some money after Callahan's contract comes off.</div></div>

Exactly, barring injuries you keep the team together this year. I don't understand all these trades looking to add scoring power, we have 4 lines that can put the puck in the net
. We remain under the cap and after the season it is time to deal with that.

Thread: Maybe?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jshherman</b></div><div>Lightning could do 8 yrs if there was the sign and trade done. I would see 9 AAV being the number of a comparable 10 AAV in other states, but I don't think Yzerman would pay more for Tavares than Hedman.</div></div>

There has been a report out there that a sign and trade isn't an option for NYI/Lou. He's already said either he's returning to NY or he's going to walk somewhere else. See below:

If the Lightning want JT, Yzerman will 100% need to pay more for him than Hedman. Hedman took a discount to stay where he was, to play where he loved playing, and to sign for 8 years. JT will not have any of those same things going for him. There's zero chance of Tavares taking less than both Stamkos and Hedman to sign a shorter, cheaper deal for a new team.

Thread: TBL TRADE FOR KESSEL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>yes the Penguins are going to give up a 90 point player who has done nothing but score goals and win in Pittsburgh for TJ Miller.</div></div>

1.) Kessel won’t break 90+ points again. This season was a statistical anamoly for him. Especially if this little feud with him and Mike Sullivan continues. He’d be a 75-85 point player in TB and supercharge their power play.
2.) J.T. Miller is younger, can play wing and center, all the while, grow into a 70ish point player on a reasonable long term contract.
3.) Cal Foote is a phenomenal defensive prospect who could easily make the team and make trading Letang easier and more palatable.
4.) All in all, we still get more cap space to resign key free agents for the 19-20 season (ie guentzel and ZAR)
